  • TIA Telecommunication Industry Association
  • the base station continuously transmits signals having been divided into slots, and the portable telephone can continuously receive the signal transmitted from the base station, while the wireless telephone transmits the signals in series of bursts at predetermined timings.
  • the timings of transmission of the signals from the wireless telephone are stipulated to be in synchronism with the timing detected from the signal transmitted from the base station and received at the wireless telephone.
  • one frame of transmission and reception of signals between the base station and wireless telephone is formed of 972 symbols, and 40 msec. long.
  • One frame of the transmission and reception is divided into six slots 1 to 6.
  • the symbol rate is 24.3 kSymbols/sec per channel.
  • two slots in one frame are allocated to communication between the base station and one wireless telephone. That is, one base station can communicates, in each channel, with three wireless telephones per channel in parallel.
  • the allocation of the slots within each frame may be such that a combination of the slots 1 and 4, a combination of the slots 2 and 5, and a combination of the slots 3 and 6 may be allocated for the respective wireless telephones.
  • the slots 1 and 4 indicated by hatching in FIG. 3 are allocated to the communication between the base station and the wireless telephone in question. It is stipulated that the wireless telephone ends the transmission of the signals 45 symbols (about 1.85 msec.) before the commencement of the allocated slot.
  • FIG. 4 shows the configuration of one slot of a transmit signal from the base station, i.e., a receive signal at the wireless telephone. It comprises a sync signal of 14 symbols, data signals and the like of 142 symbols, and spare part of six symbols.
  • FIG. 5 shows the configuration of one slot of a transmit signal at the wireless telephone. It comprises a guard of three symbols, a ramp-up of three symbols, a sync signal of 14 symbols, and data signals and the like of 134 symbols.
  • the processing is made by means of a software using a microprocessor in the conventional wireless telephone, the sync signal for the allocated slot, contained in the receive signal received immediately before is detected, and the transmission timing is generated from the timing at which the sync signal is detected, and the transmit signal is transmitted at the transmission timing.
  • the sync signal of the receive signal is not detected, the transmission of the transmit signal is stopped.
  • the transmit signal may be properly received at the base station. This is because the environment, such as fading may be different between the time of transmission and time of reception. The propagation path may also be different between the transmission and the reception. Accordingly, if the transmission is stopped when the sync signal is not detected, as described above, then there will be no possibility at all of the transmit signal from the wireless telephone being received at the base station, and the smooth demodulation at the base station may be prevented, and the speech may be interrupted or intermittent.
  • DE-A-2 812 774 discloses a system where stations use internal oscillators for synchronizing transmissions it timing information can not be received from external radio broadcast stations.
  • An object of the invention is to enable transmission from the wireless telephone for a certain period when the sync signal in the receive signal is ceased to be detected at the wireless telephone.
  • a wireless telephone of a mobile communication system which performs transmission in series of bursts, in synchronism with a receive signal, transmitted from the base station, each burst of transmission being performed responsive to a transmission timing signal, comprising:
  • Said means for autonomously generating said transmission timing signal may comprise timer means (T3, S107, S108) measuring a predetermined time corresponding to an interval between successive bursts of transmission, from the generation of the transmission timing signal for a preceding burst of transmission, with the measurement of the predetermined time being made by reference to an internal oscillator (11g).
  • a method communication of a wireless telephone of a mobile communication system which performs transmission in series of bursts, in synchronism with a receive signal in the form of a frame, transmitted from the base station, each burst of transmission being performed responsive to a transmission timing signal, comprising the steps of:
  • Said step of autonomously generating said transmission timing signal may comprise measuring a predetermined time corresponding to an interval between successive bursts of transmission, from the generation.of the transmission timing signal for a preceding burst of transmission, with the measurement of the predetermined time being made by reference to an internal oscillator.
  • FIG. 11A, FIG. 6B, FIG. 7 and FIG. 8 An embodiment of the invention will now be described with reference to FIG. 11A, FIG. 6B, FIG. 7 and FIG. 8 as well as FIG. 1 and FIG. 2.
  • the hardware configuration of the wireless telephone of this embodiment is the similar to that shown in FIG. 1.
  • the controller 11 of this embodiment has an additional function which is implemented by software, i.e., computer programs stored in a program memory 11b (FIG. 2).
  • the receive signal processor 9 notifies the controller 11 of the reception of a sync signal that has been detected in the receive signal.
  • the controller 11 Responsive to the sync signal in the receive signal, the controller 11 generates a transmission timing signal St indicating the timing of transmission at the next transmission cycle, and a reception timing signal Sr indicating the timing of reception of at the next reception cycle, and performs control over timing for autonomous transmission, to be later described in detail.
  • the generation of the transmission timing signal St and reception timing signal Sr is achieved by measuring the time by reference to an internal oscillator 11g, i.e., by counting clock pulses generated from the internal oscillator 11g.
  • the controller 11 generates the transmission timing signal St a predetermined time Tr (FIG. 12) after the detection of the sync signal, and generates the reception timing signal Sr a predetermined time Tr (FIG. 12) after the detection of the sync signal.
  • the controller 11 keeps generating the transmission timing signal St, with reference to the timing at which the sync signal was last detected, to continue the transmission until expiration of a predetermined time Ta.
  • the overall effect is that the transmission timing signal St is generated Tt after the detection of the sync signal, and thereafter at an interval of Tp.
  • Such continued generation of the transmission timing signal St at an interval Tp, measured on the basis of the clock internal to the wireless telephone, is called autonomous generation of the timing signal St, and is continued for a predetermined time Ta after the sync signal was last detected.
  • the predetermined time Ta has expired, the autonomous generation of the transmission timing signal St is stopped (and hence the transmission is halted).
  • the reason for halting the transmission by means of the autonomous generation of the transmission timing signal is that the error in the transmission timing signal St accumulates with time, and may become intolerable, causing interference with the communication of other wireless telephones.
  • the length of the time Ta is 0.823 sec., as will be explained later.
  • the controller 11 also causes termination of communication when the sync signal is not detected for a predetermined time Tf, called fading time. This to stop communication when an adverse reception state continues.
  • the time Tf is five sec. for example.
  • the RAM 11d in the controller 11 of this embodiment has memory areas used as timers T1 to T4, as shown in FIG. 6B.
  • the timers T1 and T4 are for measuring the times Tf and Ta, respectively.
  • the timer T2 is for measuring the time Tt or Tp.
  • the timer T3 is for measuring the time Tr or Tp.
  • the CPU 11a of the controller 11 writes the set values in the respective timers, and cause the timers to down-count in accordance with the internal clock, and when the value of each timer becomes zero, a time-out signal is generated.
  • FIG. 8 shows the operation for determining the timing of the transmission and reception, in accordance with the computer program stored in the ROM 11b. This operation is started when the communication (call) is started.
  • step S101 Tf is set in the fade timer T1, which is then started. Then, at step S102, and judgement is made as to whether a sync signal is detected in the receive signal. If it is not detected, then at step S103, whether the fade timer T1 has timed out. It it has not timed out, then the next step is step S102. If it has timed out, the communication is terminated.
  • step S104 Tf, Tr, Tt and Ta are set (or re-set), and the timers are started (or re-started).
  • step S105 judgement is made as to whether T4 has timed out. If it has timed out, then the next step is step S102. If it has not timed out, then the next step is step S106, where judgement is made as to whether an on-hook signal has been generated. If it has been made, the communication is terminated. If it has not been made, then CPU 11a waits for the transmission timing to come, by referring to the timer T3. When the transmission timing comes, then at step S108, transmission timing signal St is generated (causing the transmit signal processor 8 to perform the transmission), and Tp is set in the timer T3, which is then started.
  • step S109 the CPU 11a waits for the reception timing to come.
  • reception timing comes, then at step S110, reception is made, and Tp is set in the timer T2, which is then started.
  • step S111 judgment is made as to whether the sync signal is detected in the receive signal.
  • step S104 If it is detected, the next step is step S104. If it is not detected, the next step is step S105.
  • step S104 the timers T2 and T3 are re-set with Tr and Tt (step S104), so that the next transmission and reception are made at timing Tt or Tr after the detection of the sync signal, while if the sync signal is not detected, the next transmission and reception are conducted at timing Tp after the preceding transmission or reception.
  • the voice signal processing is not performed.
  • the transmission of the signal at the step S108 may successfully reach the base station, and the one-way communication may be continued.
  • autonomous transmission may be continued for Ta after the last detection of the sync signal.
  • the length of Ta depends on the accuracy of the clock generator internal to the wireless telephone. As an example, consideration is given for a case according to the stipulation of IS-54.
  • the transmission burst of the wireless telephone is provided with a guard field of three symbols.
  • the guard field is provided for avoiding interference between signals due to time shift of the timing of the transmission between different wireless telephones. With a safety margin, it can be said that an error of one symbol will not cause an interference.
  • the time length at which the error may exceed one symbol is the maximum value of time Ta.
  • the tolerance of the quarz oscillator generally employed is 50 ppm.
  • the wireless telephone can continue transmission, without being affected by the quality of radio channel from the base station to the wireless telephone.
  • the base station can receive the signal transmitted from the wireless telephone, and the demodulated voice and the like are not interrupted.
  • the quality of transmission of data from the wireless telephone can be improved.
